Su Luo subconsciously raised her hand to touch Hua Pi's forehead. It was fine, cool, colder than a freezer. He didn't have a fever, but he was just a little...sao.
"What's wrong with him?" Su Luo looked at the Gourmet and Zhao Cai waiting in the hut, and then pointed to Hua Pi's head.
"It's nothing, boss, I was just a little scared." The gourmet rubbed his hands and replied nonchalantly. He took two steps forward and was about to get closer to Su Luo when a powerful pressure swept over him, scaring the gourmet back a few steps. He trembled and his eyes were wide open, waiting for the brain to slowly grow out from behind Su Luo.
"A five-star...monster?!"
The painted skin lying on Su Luo also sensed the atmosphere and subconsciously looked up, staring blankly at the head.
Seriously? The boss has only been gone for a few days and he's already brought back a five-star monster!
That's amazing!
He was ungrateful and blind before, and now he realizes what he missed. That damned food critic didn't explain clearly, making him cherish that lousy restaurant like a treasure.
Who would leave a place with free room and board like this? It's practically paradise!
On another note, during the few days that Su Luo went to Noah's base to ask for money, the Painted Skin, who had been staying at the Delicious Restaurant, finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and went to visit the cabin.
You wouldn't believe it until you see it! Who would have thought that the place the boss mentioned, which included food and lodging, would be so luxurious!
Thinking about how much time he had missed due to his ignorance, Huapi holed up in the small house and refused to leave. Just like Zhaocai, he spent his days experiencing all sorts of new things in the warehouse, leaving everything outside to the gourmet. Even the delicious restaurants no longer appealed to him.
Just now, Painted Skin and Fortune had finished an outdoor barbecue and downed several cases of beer. The entire Ghost City was in an unusually excited state.
Silently pushing aside the newly painted skin, Brain Brother seemed to sense the difference in this place. Led by the Gourmet, he went to the dormitory where the monster employees were provided with food and lodging.
"Hey buddy, this is our dormitory. You can choose any room as long as the name isn't already filled in on the doorplate..."
A dozen minutes later.
Good heavens! A brain-flower tree stumbled out as if it were drunk, and without saying a word, it wrapped itself around Su Luo, rubbing against him as if trying to please him.
Family, isn't the environment absolutely amazing?!
It has everything you need for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, and even petri dishes and a library, so your brain can relax.
Pulling Brain off himself, Su Luo handed it the special reward given by the system. "This is a bottle of growth inhibitor. It can suppress your growth. Don't worry about it continuing to grow."
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise. Brain Brother stuffed the bottle of liquid into his brain, and immediately, a crack that ran from left to right to the center of the huge main brain tore open, like a gaping mouth, spitting out a high-level contract.
"The previous contract was not strong enough. From now on, you are my only master!"
Was the previous one not effective enough?
Is there such a saying?
This was Su Luo's first time contracting a five-star monster, so she wasn't very clear about the contract. However, after she obtained the contract, the system in her mind provided her with the answers.
'Ding, high-star monster contract detected, monster inventory +1'
'Monster Name: Brain Tree (Note: The host can change the name)'
'Ability: Multibrain Syndrome. The user will become unable to distinguish friend from foe, lose consciousness, and fall into confusion for ten minutes. (Multiple consecutive uses of this skill on a single user will cause a certain degree of intellectual decline, ranging from mild intellectual disability to severe dementia. Use with caution.)'
'Current affinity between the creature and its host: 9'
'Ding! Congratulations, host, you possess a five-star or higher-level monster with a favorability rating of over 8. Rewards: The area's perimeter wall is doubled (can be expanded or shrunk at the host's discretion within the usable area), a third-floor area appears, second-floor renovation mode is activated, and the first floor is expanded by another 100 square meters.'
'Ding! Detected that the contracted creature "Painted Skin" (named by the host) has increased its affinity with the host. Current affinity: 9.'
'Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired two contracted creatures with an affinity level higher than 8. Rewards: Extremely luxurious European princess-style decor, antique Jiangnan water town elegant lady-style decor, and a fully stocked, hoarded-item-style decor.'
Goodness, no wonder the system only notified her that the hospital purchase was successful when she was at the mental hospital, but didn't indicate that the contract was successful. So that's what was waiting for her here.
As expected of Brother Brain, having more brains means having more options; one should be clever and cautious.
This trip to the base not only yielded more ghost money, but also brought back a five-star monster. It was definitely worth the trip, and I even received a system reward, which is perfect for expanding the bus's operating range and connecting the Delicious Restaurant, the Cabin, and the Mental Hospital branch.
Therefore, Su Luo asked Zhao Cai, who had many hands and feet, to redraw the nearby map and began to think about building his own small base.
Meanwhile, the extra space, the rooms on the second floor, were all being renovated by Su Luo through various attempts. After all, she already had four or five different decorating styles, and it would be interesting to try mixing and matching them together.
The second floor was divided into several small rooms, while the first floor area was transformed into a large activity area, more than enough for banquets and feasts.
Finally, Su Luo, holding a bowl of sesame oil with some cilantro, vinegar, and minced garlic, invited the other ghosts in the house to sit together in the newly opened banquet hall and eat hot pot.
Of course, for the sake of Brother Brain, Su Luo did not serve the pig brains. Who knew that Brother Brain, who was enjoying eating, would shake his head and spin around a few times, causing several large brains to fall into the hot pot and start to boil.
